Flex

Flex is an optional block of time that is used to separate two episodes of television. One reason to use Flex time is to create commercial breaks after each episode to simulate traditional television.

There are a few ways to create Flex time such as Time Slots. When you have Flex time but no Filler Content configured, the Channel Fallback shown in the screenshot below will be used. You can optionally select the upload button to choose your own custom fallback image.

Please see the Filler Lists page for details on creating your first list.

Once you have a Filler list created, you can select the list you'd like to use on a particular channel.

Once you have a Filler list added to a channel, it will only be used when there is Flex time scheduled, such as when using Time Slots with the Pad Times feature.
